Power and Wealth

Chapter 1129: A bloody path!

Research center.

Level five. Inside an office.

The door opened. Dong Xuebing and Zhong Lizhen walked out quietly.

“We will continue downstairs.” Dong Xuebing turned to Zhong Lizhen. “Just stay close to me when we encounter any soldiers. Don’t step away from me.”

Zhong Lizhen nodded. “I know.”

“I will settle the rest.”

“Ok. What else do you need me to do?”

“Just follow me closely. You don’t need to do anything.”

“Then I will tell you the route. We will be near the backdoor if we go by the stairs. There are lesser soldiers stationed there. But the backdoor might be locked, and they had changed the pin. I might need some time to unlock it.”

“It’s fine.”

“It’s ok.”

“Let’s go then. Just leave by yourself if we are in danger.”

“I know. You want me to leave you behind if we are in danger.”

Dong Xuebing said this because Zhong Lizhen did not know about their relationship. He will also not leave Xie Huilan’s aunt and escape himself. He cannot face Han Jing and Xie Huilan if he does that. He is stubborn and will not care about the consequences. If their escape attempt failed, he would die with Zhong Lizhen.

In the stairwell.

Dong Xuebing monitored the situation for a few seconds. It was quiet, and he did not hear any footsteps. He turned and waved Zhong Lizhen over before going down the stairs.

Level five….

Level four….

Level three….

“Wait.” Dong Xuebing suddenly stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Zhong Lizhen did not notice anything.

Dong Xuebing pulled her into the corridor and did not say anything.

The next moment, an office door opened, and they heard footsteps and people speaking in English. Those people walked away about five seconds later.

Zhong Lizheng was stunned. She did not know how Dong Xuebing knew someone would come out of that office suddenly.

Dong Xuebing did not explain, and they continued down the stairs. Finally, they reached the ground floor.

Suddenly, the alarm sounded. “Beep… beep… beep… beep… beep…” It was loud and sharp.

A commotion was heard from upstairs. Needless to think, someone had discovered those two soldiers’ bodies and knew Zhong Lizhen had escaped.

“Shit.” Zhong Lizhen looked nervous.

“Move faster.” Dong Xuebing remained calm.

“It’s too late.” Zhong Lizhen quickly followed and heard someone opening the backdoor. She could also hear footsteps and soldiers clocking their guns.

The soldiers are here.

They cannot escape now.

Zhong Lizhen immediately said. “I will divert their attention, and you will escape with that USB drive. Don’t let my research go to waste.”

Dong Xuebing calmly replied. “Don’t worry.”

“Why are you not running?” Zhong Lizhen asked.

“I told you earlier. Just follow behind me, and you don’t need to worry about anything.” Dong Xuebing replied.

The footsteps got closer from the corner of the corridor.

“They are here.” Dong Xuebing kept his steak knives and removed two handguns from his waist. He turned to Zhong Lizhen. “Can I use guns now?”

“Yes. Just go by yourself.”

“From the footsteps, it should be around seven to eight soldiers. It’s fine.”

“That’s seven to eight fully armed soldiers, and you are alone. You should escape in another direction. They think I am alone and will not go after you. I will divert their attention.”

“That’s too troublesome.”

“Xiao Dong….”

“Lie on the floor. I don’t want you to get hurt.”

“We will not escape if you continue to waste time.”

“I told you I would bring you back safely and will do it.”

Zhong Lizhen was anxious because no one could escape. But she was with Dong Xuebing. He thought nothing of seven to eight men. Maybe he would get slightly nervous if facing a few dozen soldiers.

Footsteps got closer.

Dong Xuebing pushed Zhong Lizhen to the ground and asked her to lie down. He raised his guns and pointed to an empty corridor. Bang! Bang! He fired two shots, and two soldiers were shot when they stepped out behind a corner.

Zhong Lizhen’s jaws dropped.

“Stop!”

“Stop!”

“The target is in the corridor!”

Those soldiers stopped.

Dong Xuebing did not wait for them to devise a plan and walked towards the corner slowly. He stepped past those two soldiers’ bodies and turned into the corner.

Bang… bang… bang….

Bang… bang… bang… bang… bang… bang….

Rifles and handguns opened fire at Dong Xuebing.

Bullets flew everywhere.

The automatic rifles had a fast firing rate.

Dong Xuebing took a step back and waited. The bullets hit the wall, and he stuck his gun out from behind the corner. He fired five shots without looking.

Those handguns and rifles stopped firing.

Dong Xuebing did not check the situation and walked back to Zhong Lizhen. “Let’s go.”

Zhong Lizhen was still in shock. “Go?”

“It’s settled. We can go now.” Dong Xuebing replied confidently.

Zhong Lizhen got up slowly and walked towards Dong Xuebing. She stopped before the corner and looked in that direction.

Dong Xuebing did not care and pulled her away.

“Be careful.” Zhong Lizhen said.

But when she saw the scene behind that corner, she was stunned. She looked at Dong Xuebing again, and her eyes changed.

Those five soldiers behind the corner died.

All of them were shot in their chests or hearts.

What sorcery is this? How could he shoot those soldiers without looking, and all of them were shot in their vital spots?

This marksmanship….

This combat power….

Zhong Lizhen felt this young man might save her for the first time.
